Architecture and history
Today's Oerlinghauser Rathaus was a school from 1887 to 1975. From January 1, 1976, the building serves as the town hall. From 1926 on, the town hall was housed in the Hotel Stadt Bremen (today the city hotel ). Since 1933 the house at Detmolder Straße 1 had served as the town hall, the owner of which was the then chief executive of the Oerlinghauser Elektrizitätswerke , Joe Meyer.
At the beginning of the 19th century there were two schools in Oerlinghausen, namely the sexton school for girls and the cantor school for boys. In the period that followed, the number of students increased steadily and the call for the construction of a primary school in Oerlinghausen became louder around 1880. In 1887, thanks to the initiative of Superintendent Gottfried Wilhelm Weerth , the quarry stone building could begin. The school community was not able to raise the entire construction costs and therefore received a grant of 7,000 marks from the Princely Lippe government . The primary school building remained unchanged from 1887 to 1948.
After the currency reform in 1948 , an extension was approved and in 1949 people moved into. In the following years lessons for the students of the Progymnasium took place in the annex . The enormous increase in pupils in Oerlinghausen soon forced the city to separate elementary school and high school. So in 1957 the new building for the elementary school on Weerthstrasse was built, which could be occupied in 1958. The previous elementary school was now used by the high school students alone. In 1963 the city council decided to expand the Progymnasium into a grammar school . On July 20, 1975, the inauguration of the new building, which today bears the name Niklas Luhmann Gymnasium , took place. After some renovations, the vacated elementary school could now be used as a town hall.
